EF-1 Alpha Promoter Vectors

Human elongation factor-1 alpha (EF-1 alpha) is a constitutive promoter of human origin that can be used to drive ectopic gene expression in various in vitro and in vivo contexts. EF-1 alpha is often useful in conditions where other promoters (such as CMV) have diminished activity or have been silenced (as in embryonic stem cells).

Features

EF-1 alpha promoter vectors are available in multiple formats for either plasmid or lentiviral delivery:

Living Colors fluorescent protein fusion vectors

IRES vectors for coexpression of 2 genes

Vectors with highly immunoreactive Myc or HA tags that can be used to confirm Matchmaker interactions in mammalian cells
